It still might be a termination issue; this is not the same thing as the SCSI ID number, which is what you're talking about with the 0 and 1. The SCSI bus needs to be terminated by a resistive load at the end of the cable. This is usually part of the disk drive. You need to make sure the termination jumper or resistor network is installed/switched on only on the last drive. That's *physically* last, i.e. farthest away from the controller card. The remaining drive(s) should be left unterminated. Most modern drives will have a single jumper that does this. See your drive's instruction sheet for details, or visit the manufacturer's web site.
